Canoe vs. Kayak | What's the difference?

In this video, we learn the advantages and disadvantages of having a canoe or a kayak. If you are looking to buy your first boat, and you are wondering what the difference is, this is a great place to start.

The benefits to having a canoe include being able to carry more people, having more room for gear, having a variety of seating options (kneeling or on the seat), ease of carrying or portaging, and ease of getting in and out of the boat. The benefits to getting a kayak including sitting closer to the water, faster speed on the water, dry storage options, and easier maneuvering with two blades rather than one.
